Fatigue and age show up around your eyes first. Here’s how to fight back
- Wear sunscreen year-round and be sure to apply it to crow’s feet.
- Avoid squinting. If that means wearing your glasses or contacts more often, so be it.
- Apply moisturizing eye cream twice a day. Put it on with your ring finger –your weakest digit and therefore the least likely to cause damage or wrinkles. Payoff: eyes will look fresher and less puffy.
- Gently exfoliate. Using delicate, circular motions slough off dead skin and improve circulation.
- Dab gently when removing makeup. The same goes when you put on makeup, cream or lotion.
- Don’t wear creamy eye shadow without a primer underneath or a layer of powder on top. When makeup sinks into creases, it showcases creepy skin.
- Define lower lashes with a quick coat of mascara or use nothing at all. Avoid dark liners which make you look years older.
- Don’t wear overly frosted, sparkling liner or eye shadow, especially the loose-powder kind. The glimmering particles can migrate into fine lines and draw more attention to them .
